Question To The Den


 


 


The above photograph was taken today at sunset down at the cemetery 


on my new Sony digital camera…..I cannot explain this. Nothing has been altered


on this picture. I snapped a series of them and came home and downloaded them


and this is what was there….?????


***********************************************************


I have never been much for believing in this sort of thing,


you know, haunted houses, specters of the night and spooks unseen.


Yet I may have to rethink this position that my state of mind is in,


for I took the above picture of the sighing sun, just as twilight was to begin.


************************************************************


 


Now as you can see from the picture above, there was something else there.


This was the second photo of the very same scene (minus a little zoom)


yet to you I promise, there was nothing except the clouds, the bridge and trees.


This photograph has not been re-touched in anyway whatsoever. If it was film,


then I would think maybe an exposure problem. But this was my new Sony digital camera


and it seems obvious to me that it saw something that I could not. Though I have seen


a lot of TV shows that claim to have pictures of spirits, I never believed them.


I do believe that there is a spirit world, but I do not believe they manifest themselves


to us with rattling chains and such, but I will admit…This is a first for me


***********************************************************


So readers in the Den…tell me what you think. Is this something that can be explained?


Is there someplace that I can send this photo for it to be examined?


Or should I just remain the way I have always been… (Just a plain saltine cracker?)


You know nothing fancy, just plain nothing ever strange happens to me…Hmmm.


 


Comments or explanations are more than welcome since I really have no clue.


Thanks….Allen

Allen,
Do you think God is trying to show you something? He does that, you know. He will do whatever it takes to make us search our heart and soul. Ghosts? Well I wrote a book about them but I do believe in Angels. Maybe you caught one off guard. Or maybe he wanted you to.
God Bless,
Lew

Apparition being the operative word here J.

I believe in the spirit realms, but not in the same vein as many others do, so my opinion of this thing that looks more like a vapour trail...is that it is just simply one of Satan's henchmen having a lend of you!
I believe when he was cast down, as the bible speaks of, he took a third of the angels that rebelled against God, so therefore he has plenty of Demons as we call them now since they lost their position in the heavenly realms. From Angels to demons went they, as did Lucifer son of the morning, to Satan.They have nothing better to do than decieve men/woman.
That's my humble opinion based on the scriptures, and my explanation to you for what it's worth. It's still up to you to decide at end of the day what it's all about mate.

For what it's worth here's my 2 cents. First, concerning the picture itself; without adding anything more, I've seen many many pictures with unusual things appearing in them with no explanation; one was a image behind myself. Freaky? Not to me. There could be so many reasons for the camera protraying unusaul things that your eye did not actually see. What they might be, I pay little attention to, and always remember that the power of suggestion can be a very powerful tool in itself. If I were to examin the picture closer, turn it around sideways upside down, this way and that you may see things differently.
As for beliefs, I believe as Joselyn that if we are christians, then indeed there is a spiritual warfare going on in our lives everyday, and yes, I personaly believe in the spirit world.That's why I wrote the book "The Spirit That Never Dies!" Given the fact you were near a cemetary would sugest many things to me. But those are my personal oppinions and we must also remember that writer's, artist's, and actor's are deep sensitive individual's.

With all due respect to Ed and Alexandria, et al, I suppose I stand alone here when I say all this amounts to is some kind of trick the elements played on the camera. Or something else as simple as that. Ghosts. If I had to bet on the possibility that there were whispy ghosts floating around, I'd go with "not."

Like our good friend Ed, I'm one who believes there is a lot more to our universe than we have come to understand and explain so far. Actually, I dare going as far as to believe that there is a lot more even to our own nature, as beings, than we care to think about - until something as unexpected as this photo makes us start to wonder, whether we like it or not :0) Could you have captured - as some have done before, to their amazement - a natural, yet usually unseen, manifestation of another dimension of the being (some call it soul, some call it astral body, some call it spirit... some call it ghost!)? It is fascinating!
Love,

As one who believes there is much in our earthly realm that we do not understand, and may never understand, and who also believes in spiritual encounters, your picture is truly fascinating, J. Allen. And I definitely see a face in the upper right hand corner. A cosmic traveler, a being trapped in time, a poor wandering soul, an entity trying to establish contact with you? The possibilities are truly endless.

My friend, The Greenman, a shaman and good friend can't pick up a camera without the dame thing happening to him. He started buying the disposables to see if it was his camera. It wasn't. Sometimes they are spheres that float all over and other times there are images. He can't explain it except to say somethng spiritual happens.The pic is beautiful and perhaps you are a catalyst for other's to get their energies out to those that believe.
It's all wonderful.
Love,
Susan

I think I have to go along with Kate's comment. Some things are just unexplainable...and yes, perhaps we can make out a face in the aura. This isn;t the first time I have seen this kind of thing in photography...the unexplainable appearing when it was totally invisible to you when taking the photograph. A friend showed me a similar phemenon in a pic taken in her own home while photographing her children.
There certainly was no threat when you were there taking the picture...no good or evil to be explained...just a manifestation of someone or something that needed to make itself known to you in whatever way it could. Perhaps you should consideer yourself priveleged that you were trusted with this aura.

Thanks for sharing this!

You can't be exhaling on that bone when taking pictures, you know better than that...beyond the humorous is the mysterious & I love when these type of things happen...I will use my photographic program to see if i can see any thing else, either way, an interesting shot...Ed

an amazing picture, Allen ... yes, Kimmy is right, on the top right you can see apparition of a face ... "there are more mysteries under heaven and earth than ever dreamt in your philosphy" ...

There are obviously some explanations to this type of pictures. You are not the first one who has experienced this. I have watched some TV documentaries that showed this type of pictures too.

When you filmed this in a cemetary, strange things are going to happen.

I can't make out any forms with this one though, I've tried to look for the child's face that Kimmy was talking about, but could not find it. It's just that some people can see it and some people can't.

At my work, some people told me they often see things and hear strange noises, but I can't see or hear anything.

I don't know what this could be but this is strange; but I know you didn't see it when you were there taking the photo.

Seems every time I take a few minutes away from my painting I find interesting things.....like this :-)

Somehow you have picked up on digital a energy that can not be seen when you are looking directly at it. I have a photo, myself of a tree that felt different and when I downloaded a face appeared in the exact spot I felt the need to touch.

The media/ tv and movies has created so many images of ghosts that it is easy to understand why you do not believe in such eneriges. No they don't come with chains :-) There is negative energy and positive. Nothing to worry about in either case. Fear is the only real problem :-)

Now what would be additionally interesting is for you to take some time out and remember how you felt at the moment you where taking this photo? It would give you an idea what type of energy you where picking up on.......then you might understand it better :-)

Thanks for sharing this with us :-)

Pretty cool J Allen...I would do two things...one, show the pic to the retailer, and see what explanation they give you...and two...zoom in closer to the top right, about an inch down...within a tear shaped opening, you can see the child's face with a shroud covering his eyes. At 300X you can see it perfectly! I never question spiritual interventions, I am not claiming, nor disclaiming...I can only see and imagine or know and imagine. I have had several occasions personally, that I can only say...
We are never alone!
Love and Peace~

There are spirits all around us the principalities in higher places, levels of other spirits and then The Angels are ministering spirits. I never dwell on it but this is an amazing picture your new camera captured. Further looking at the picture reveals a human mans form possible two I can see the vapors of cloudiness inhaled into his nostrils, then another part below looks like a face facing him, also a very weird face below it. Some would say it is a follow shadowing perhaps etc. Like when you look at clouds for a while, they seems to shape. We are also in spiritual battle if you follow the Lord. He too was confronted by demons, spirits. He even mentioned to Nathaniel one of his disciples that he would even see masses of angels one day. God Bless and keep you surrounded by his ministering Angels. Twin towers had an amazing picture when it was bombed it looks like a demons face or Satans in Big explosion.
Light & Peace,
Joselyn
